<h2>The given statement is true</h2>
Explanation:
Iron absorption occurs in the duodenum and upper jejunum of small intestine
- At physiological pH ferrous iron is rapidly oxidized to the insoluble ferric form
- Gastric acid lowers the pH in the duodenum which enhances the solubility and uptake of ferric iron
- Once iron gets inside the enterocyte it can be stored as ferritin;Ferritin is a hollow spherical protein which helps in storage and regulation of iron levels within the body
- Ferritin molecule have ferroxidase activity which helps in the mobility of Fe2+ out of the enterocyte by ferroportin
- Transferrin is the major iron transport protein which transports iron through blood
- Fe3+ binds to transferrin so Fe2+ transported through ferroportin must be oxidized to Fe3+
- Fe2+ needs to be oxidized first so that it can be transported through ferroportin
- Once iron gets inside the cell it can be used for various cellular processes
Answer:
It's secreted into the extracellular fluids. Collects in the lymph fluid, the vascular blood fluid and eventually the excess is secreted via, urine, feces, lung respiratory exhalation gases, sweat, nasal and mouth, throat mucous and saliva, tears, etc.

Some of the factors are:
<span>-Moderate climate.
-central geography,
-ease of transportation,
-highways,
-railroads,
-location near a large body of water
</span>Large cities tend to develop far from cities that had either too hot or too cold temperature. It also must be easily accessible by other regions and provide the people with necessary resources that help them sustain their living (such as water, food crops, woods, etc)
A: has a specific active site
Answer:
The process of mitosis generates new cells that are genetically identical to each other. Mitosis helps organisms grow in size and repair damaged tissue.
